 * Hi [@cloudduster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cloudduster/),
 * Are you also using some other CF7 extension along with google sheet connector
   plugin ? If so can you let us know.
 * If not than let us know your wordpress and PHP version and from which browser
   and device you are trying to activate this plugin.
 * Thanks

 * Hi and thanks for the reply.
 * Contact Form 7 – Dynamic Text Extension is the only CF7 extension i’m currently
   using.
    My php is 7.0 My WP version 4.9.8
 * I was able to use this plugin before without a problem. But I don’t know if the
   hosting upgrade did affect the activation of this plugin.

 * Yes, because in PHP-7 few of the functions are deprecated. So CF7 Google SheetConnector
   is currently not compatible with it.
